Abstract

Hydroquinones π-bonded to the transition metal fragments Mn(CO) 3+, Rh(COD)+, and Rh[P(OPh)3] 2+ are readily deprotonated to afford anionic η4-quinone complexes that function as organometalloligands by binding to metal ions through the quinone oxygen atoms. The resulting supramolecular assemblies display a variety of interesting and potentially useful network topologies.
